Doctor's answer:
The most common cause of fever is infection. If the fever persists for more than 48 hours, or if other symptoms such as cough, vomiting, or lethargy appear, it is necessary to go to the hospital for a blood test to determine whether the infection is bacterial, viral, or mycoplasma. Based on the blood test results, medication should be administered to address the symptoms. Additionally, the doctor should listen to the lungs or take a chest X-ray to check for pneumonia. If the fever lasts for an extended period, it is also important to consider the possibility of EB virus infection.If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, oral Meclizine can be used to reduce fever. Meclizine should not be taken more than four times a day. If the fever remains high after taking Meclizine orally, a fever-reducing injection may be required. A temperature below 38.5°C is considered low-grade fever, and physical cooling methods should be used. Drink plenty of water and use warm towels to wipe areas such as the neck, armpits, groin, and inner thighs. It is also important to maintain a light diet and avoid greasy, spicy, or irritating foods.
